I had a great time. Kamala was a great dive buddy, and always pointed out things I could photograph. I enjoyed meeeting everyone, and made some great new friends. Thanks a lot to Ali, who let me borrow her digital and housing after my $40 "Sharkfinder" camera found it's last shark, and flooded. I got my $40 out of it, but will be looking to buy a real camera soon.
I can't wait to get back in the water!
BTW - I also get an error message when I clock on the galleries. I have a few underwater pictures I wanted to post, but don't know how. Anyone with some ideas??

Well the world is not moving this AM.Is anyone besides me having a hard time getting their land legs back? I'm swaying all over the place and even when I'm sitting, my head is swaying. It was cute at first, but now I'm getting tire of it. The only thing that helps is drinking a margarita.
I must say I do miss Tony's meals. My BBQ chicken salid last night was a bit of a letdown after all that great food we had last week.Scott

if you want me to post any, just let me know which ones (i did post one of the boat). Otherwise try going directly to: http://www.singlediv...&code=00&cat=56I had a great time.

see if that gets you into the gallery.
Oh, you'll need to make them all a little smaller. I think 1024x768 is just fine.
Glad you made it home safe!

Yes, remember, some of us are virgins. Is that any way to treat a virgin?Now Chuck...you are going to ruin that nice guy image we left the trip with....I agree with you Walter. You whimps!!! Quit your cry babying!
not everyone has the luxury of diving as much as you and others have....and many tried a liveaboard for the first time...I think everyone did awesome!
As for the rocking...mine has finally stopped...but it does help to do more as you acclimate quicker the more you do!

Great photos!
I was on our new boat in Turks & Caicos the week before; Here is an aerial shot of it from the bosses plane.

I like the after effects of the motion sickness it makes me think of my trip for at least a few days after I am back home working. I am so glad that everyone had a good time and If Kamala does book the new boat for next year I hope that she books it when there is no scuba show going on. I would love to make the next one.

What an awesome trip! Great weather, great friends and great diving. And we shouldn't forget about Tony's great food. (Tony the cook that is) 
Well, I made it back in only 29 hours. No weather delays, just AA delays I suppose. Ended up laying over in San Juan (at the airport hotel). Not some swanky place on the beach like Doris (Do Ris) and Chuck.
My head has finally stopped swimming, so I guess I am getting my land legs back. (Ok, I will stop my cry baby)
So hey Wench, what about Bonaire? That could be real fun...... Keep me posted.
